Disconnecting the second monitor resulted in a normal working pc. Thanks very much! But how should I connect my second (and in the near future a third) monitor, without having this problems? Should it make difference if I make the settings in Cathalyst Control Center?

The evil has returned: my Cinnamon is excactly the same as it was two months ago... The only problem now is that I cannot start any application anymore, I only can start a terminal with rmb on the desktop. Does anybody now what might cause this problem? Perhaps an update? Thing I changed since the l...

edit: problem solved. I shut my pc down from terminal (there I wasn't able to find the power button) with shutdown -t now. I ended in a command line, telling me to press control+D, so I did. It then restarted Cinnamom in the right way, but without internet. I rebooted completely and everything works...

Well, I have an Ati (or AMD) 6850 grapics card, but I haven't installed any updates since I placed it two months ago. Or might it be caused by an update for my graphics card installed through the Update Manager?

It only got worse! I closed all the gnome panels, but now I can't start a terminal anymore :/
Any ideas?

Why is that problem than since yesterday? An update?

What I do not understand is this (report generated from "System information")

Sorry, I wasn't really clear. Again, I logged out, and selected Cinnamon to boot in. And again, everything appears multiple times... My graphics card can't be the problem, there I have used it for two months now with Linux. And it's a game card, I can play the most games (GTA IV etc.) on the highest...

i chose the Cinnamon desktop version... "Last session" was checked... My graphics card is the ATI 6850. It has worked very well for the last two months, and my pc (without GPU) has worked very well too in the months before. Might Blender cause the problem? I installed it (and updates) and ...

Hmm, really strange... When I log out and choose to log in "Cinnamon" I still get the Mate looking desktop... And instead of three Firefox bars, I now get 4 ones :p.

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi everyone! After I yesterday installed the updates through the updater, I now boot in a kind of Mate desktop. It's similar to Mate, and all my applets are gone. Luckily my FireFox tabbs were saved. For some reason are there 3 firefox bars in the bottom of the screen. Does anybody know a solution f...

@Oscar799: You're completely right, but since it has a relation with this topic (I followed the How to), I thought it was better to place a comment here, rather than make a new topic.

Hi there! After reading this topic I tried to remove Pulse and install ALSA. Finally I got it all installed, but now the Sound applet won't show up. I tried a lot of things, but it won't come back. - Restored default applets - deleted all items I don't know in applet location (I didn't delete the ap...

Thank you very much for your help! I think I'm going to try it tomorrow, or I should get a cup of coffee first : a bit tired at the moment .
Thanks again!

Mmm, it's kinda weird. I can view the other partitions in Disk Management, but when I right-click on them, the only option is to delete the partition. I can't find how I should fix this. Does someone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks! I really appreciate your help! I actually didn't mean a boot of Linux in W7, but a dual boot (as you probably assumed). I'm going to try the boot repair on the ubuntu forum, right after I finished to get my scanner working in W7 .

Thanks for your help so far!

Thanks! This afternoon when I have time I'm going to look.
But I can't boot W7 and Linux as you say?

Hi, This afternoon I finally installed W7 to my dekstop (for gaming purposes only ;) ). After the long way of installing I finally have W7 installed. But now I can't boot Mint anymore! Can someone please help me a little to make a dualboot in Windows 7? I can only find guides that describe how to ma...

I tried it again, but when I try " sudo apt-get install wine-gecko1.4", the terminal prompts: Pakketlijsten worden ingelezen... Klaar Boom van vereisten wordt opgebouwd De status informatie wordt gelezen... Klaar E: Kan pakket wine-gecko1.4 niet vinden E: Kon geen enkel pakket vinden bij r...

Hi guys! I recently installed Mint Cinnamon on my laptop, after I tried it a few months on my desktop. The only problem is that Wine won't install. I searched in the software manager (I installed it there on my desktop), but it isn't there anymore. I installed Winetricks via a terminal. Only when I ...
